Pretty Cool Haircut

So it is with great pleasure I introduce What Would You Do Video Game Man vol. 3. Also discussed on this episode: Yakuza, heavy PS5 talk, God of War Ragnarok, Final Fantasy 16, Bugsnax, the time Kanye West said my Xbox Live gamer tag name in a song, Demon Souls, plus many other things. Heartbreak Mermaid.

Apologies for the lateness of this episode posting. I hope you were able to run without us. Hopefully you can all run and listen on Thursday this week. Or better yet how about fuck running and engage in the new hot sport that takes up half the runtime of this episode, Dad Ball. Also discussed on this episode: sody pops: at least two different kinds, Battletoads, River City Girls, Nvidia, Jeff Keeley, Adam Sessler, T.I., Jamiroquai, Escape from Tarkov, and did I mention DAD BALL. Get really strong and listen to this hot eppy. The feast of the flames.

Pewdiepie, don't listen to my podcast.

The Pretty Cool Haircut Best Video Game Man 2020 Tournament continues (but does not conclude, sorry). Tune in to see who makes it out of the second round.

College sports: on one hand they're bad. On the other hand they fucking love tournaments and so do I. With that said I am pleased to present to you round 1 of the Pretty Cool Haircut Best Video Game Man 2020 Tournament.

Also discussed on this episode: backyard camping, Baja Blast, United Colors of Benetton, Microsoft Flight Simulator, the Us Army's online video game presence, Neon Abyss, Ghost of Tsushima, and more. Click it or ticket.

After missing a week we're back on an off week for our makeup ep. In this episode we put on our game dev helmets and really just lay out what the future of weirdo games should be. If you work for a studio, hit us up, we're trying to change the game over here. Other topics this time around include: every Ubisoft game coming out this year, for some fucking reason, Outer Wilds, Dead by Daylight, Noita, Cyberpunk 2077, the CBC's As It Happens, Dark Souls, Dr. Disrespect, Ninja, Sludge Life, Devolver Digital, The Miguel song Skywalker, and a fair bit of genital talk. Check it out, or prove to the world what you've always known about yourself deep down inside, you're a coward.

JJ had a second baby, it's name is the Shure SM7B. To commemorate this joyous occasion he made a new Just a Trim for your listening pleasure. In this mini ep, he talks about the first year of his journey into fatherhood. This is the first episode that doesn't mention Noita or Cyberpunk 2077. Fans of not hearing my (Justin) voice will love this episode. We'll be back next week and the following with hot new eps, in the mean time learn a thing or two from your VG papa.

RIP E3, we are talking nothing but news, and by now you should realize that news to us just means lets fuck around for an hour and twenty minutes. Featured on this episode, a made up word spoken by Resident Steve, rumble buggies, The Outer Wilds, Cyberpunk, Witcher 3, Nier Automata, Hollow Knight, Metal Gear Solid 5, terrible Steam games, a spooky game, JJ sings some more Phil Collins, a new sponsor, Hetfield noises, and some other stuff. Give it a listen babies

Please note that at the beginning of this episode for the first 10 minutes we have a very frank and serious discussion about police abolition. It was something that has been on our minds as it has I'm sure for most Americans and we wouldn't have felt right if we didn't make clear how we are feeling. After the first ten minutes we go into a regular show, it's also our 1 year anniversary. We reminisce, we remember, we talk about the future of the show and we listen to a few choice clips from previous episodes. Also discussed on this episode: Cyberpunk, Cyberpunk merchandise, Maneater, Potata, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Animal Crossing, Dan Akryod's Crystal Skull Vodka, Destiny 2, Phil Collins songs, also other things. Give it a listen, I really edited the shit out of this one.

Yo, what's up? We made a new episode. It's pretty chill, extremely low effort. I dig through a box, JJ digs through his mind's box. We offer video games for anyone that wants them. Also discussed: our only passion: Noita, fitted hats, two games JJ played in 2011 that he barely remembers, and I don't know other stuff. It's pretty tight. Get the nag champa outta ya ears and give it a listen.
